Can you use liquid stabilizer in a pool that has a cartride filter?
Yes, you can use liquid stabilizer in a pool with a cartridge filter. Liquid stabilizers, typically cyanuric acid, help protect chlorine from being broken down by sunlight. When adding stabilizer, ensure it's well-dissolved and evenly distributed in the pool to avoid any clumping. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the appropriate dosage based on your pool's volume.

How much stabiliser in 3861 gal pool?
To determine the amount of stabilizer (cyanuric acid) needed for a 3861-gallon pool, a common recommendation is to aim for a stabilizer level of around 30-50 ppm. To achieve this, you would generally need about 4-6 pounds of stabilizer for 3861 gallons. However, it's essential to check the current stabilizer level in the pool before adding more, as this will affect how much you need to add. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and guidelines for specific products.
